Catering for every guest
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:
- Feed crew and volunteers at set times
- Ask about peak-time capacity
- Ask for allergen information at each stall
- Agree waste arrangements with traders
We cook in full view of visitors, and serve from the pan throughout the event.
Churros and tapas can join the menu.
What’s in the pans
Seafood paella
Seafood paella is always popular.
Vegan paella
A proper vegan main, in its own pan.
Planning the cooking area
We’ll agree the cooking spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A pitch big enough for the pans, burners and serving table
- Firm, level ground
- A pitch away from tents and structures
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and we’ll say what we think.

FAQs for Moulsoe

What paperwork do you provide?
Tell us what the event needs and we’ll send it with our application.
How many paellas should we have?
Two or three is usual: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood paella and a vegetable or vegan one. We will help you decide the split.

What affects the price in Moulsoe
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- Timings and hours
- Distance and access to the venue
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.
Getting an accurate quote
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- The courses you’d like
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- What the venue already provides
- The date and time of the event
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.
How it works
Service is quick: we serve straight from the pan, so even a long queue moves. When service is finished, we pack down. At midsummer, events in Moulsoe stay light until about 9:25pm, which helps evening trading. For winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- You get our stall menu and what we need on site.
- We send the documents the event asks for.
- We time the first pans for the lunchtime rush.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
Before we arrive
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
